Was talking to my dad a few minutes ago, mentioned the heat in Europe and the UK, said Europe had 3x the heat deaths in '24 that we had gun deaths...wondering if he'd pick up what I was saying, he said "Ya know, they're so far North, not many of them have A/Cs(youd think theyd get em after '24 if that was the case)..I can't figure if it's just another thing he's in denial about, or if he actually doesn't know

Your dad is a disease that you need to disown

The question to ask him is if there are that many heat deaths in the UK or that few gun deaths in the U.S. See what his response is.

Weird that the word “gun” don’t set him off. I’ve noticed lately the progressives seem to be focused on a/c and other things besides guns. I guess they really do get their talking points emailed or texted to them.

Idk if it’s fair for you to expect him to zoom in on the gun stat. For all you know it shaped your point well and he got good context from it.

My point was simply the HUGE number of heat deaths.......it wasn't about guns at all, I was just trying to give him some type of scale

He was a meteorologist, he didn't raise me, he decided that going to the east coast to a big meteorological dept college was more important than raising me, my JFK dem grandfather who was born on a farm outside Many in 1919 and boxed in the Navy, was then a union sheet metal worker raised me, but my grandfather was never anywhere close to the pussy...I mean as far left as my dad

Pretty crude remark but your point is valid. This baw and his dad will never see eye to eye on anything. How can you receive love from someone who hates what you stand for? If push comes to shove, his lib dad would throw this guy in a fire and laugh.

It wasn't mean to be an insult.

I was just horsing around and riffing on the Uber part.

Believe me, we've had it out.....it's a tenuous situation, he's a little too scared of me to step too far outta line, but to be sure, I can tell since I finally left the left during blm/covid that he's different, I honestly think he changed his life insurance to my son but......I'll find out eventually

Really? With the way that libs are cutting off anyone that just doesn't agree about everything.
